Lola and the Boy Next Door

Lola and the Boy Next Door follows Lola, a creative and vibrant teenager living in San Francisco with her two supportive dads and beloved dog. Lola is passionate about costume design and is currently dating a punk rocker. Her life takes an unexpected turn when the Bell twins, Calliope and Cricket, move back into the house next door. This return forces Lola to confront a past friendship-ending fight with Calliope, a figure skater, and rekindles a long-held childhood crush on Cricket. The story beautifully explores themes of first love, navigating complex friendships, self-discovery through creative expression, and the warmth of a loving, unconventional family. It's a charming read for young adults exploring their identity and relationships.
